Toward the Resolution of Global Environmental Issues

Three Environmental Pillars of Our Vision:

Prevention of Global Warming, Conservation of Resources, and Preservation of Ecosystem

The quest for a comfortable life has led humankind to create a society based on convenience, in turn causing environmental problems such as climate change, depletion of resources, and the destruction of ecosystems. To realise a material cycle society in harmony with the earth, we must have a clear vision and zeal to promote environmental conservation. As such, we have formulated the "Environmental Vision 2025", a long-term plan emphasizing on preventing global warming which governs all our business activities, so as to achieve a sustainable society by promoting global production that reduces the environmental burden of a product throughout its life cycle.

To realise our Environmental Vision, we promote activities in accordance with the Hitachi Action Guidelines for Environmental Conservation. These guidelines are based on the corporate credo of contributing to society through the development of superior, original technology and products as stated in the Standards of Corporate Conduct.
